Post subject:  Latency 4096 crackling with some presets - solved !
Using 4096 samples latency, I get crackling (approx. 10 crackles per second) when I load the following presets:
With all WEB RADIO STATIONS
and all WEB RADIO - USER PRESETS
except Laza's Warm & Smooth and SuperH's Low-Bitrate Optimizer.

No difference if I use low or high quality settings (or change the clear buffer setting).

Obvious it has something to do with the loudness setting, because when I manually reduce it to 1.00x (off) the crackling disapears completely.

My own presets with enabled loudness (some with 3.00x) have the same problem, but in a very reduced quantity (approx. 1 crackle every 20 seconds !).

Using 2048 samples latency I don't have any crackling at all.

My system:
Athlon 64 X2 6000+
2 GB RAM
Windows XP pro SP2
Realtek HD Audio (onboard)
(Stereo Tool BETA 5.10-3)

I had forgotten to mention that I use the Stereo Tool DSP version.

And another important second information:
I use an external DSP host instead of Winamp !
The crackling problem does not appear with Winamp as host.

So this is not a problem caused by Stereo Tool.
It is introduced by the external DSP host.

:arrow: problem solved !

Ah ok, great! I was already surprised by this. Still, I don't really understand how this can happen (unless the delay of processing 4096 samples is too big, and this DSP host uses a very short buffer - it might help if you can increase that buffer)
